dead poet Dec 2024
she was a good wife:
beautiful, honest, kind, soft -
just like her silence.
dead poet Dec 2024
a quote of wisdom
makes it to school bulletin;
janitor reads it.
dead poet Dec 2024
the phone’s rung twice now;
i can hear it from the bath,
too naked to talk.
dead poet Dec 2024
a brick in the wall -
an ant crawls into a crack;
becomes family.
dead poet Dec 2024
in lonely disdain,
a pulsating bitterness;
utters a bad word.
